assorted sordid

Post by balsa » March 2nd, 2005, 1:03 pm

no key for a rusted lock
on the crawl space door
rats nest warm inside

large drop rings a puddle
her hand between a bottle
of whiskey and pills


seagulls above a parking lot
an abandoned truck
with a bullet hole

spring break
home from the front
without a hand
The way is to get out of the way of the way.

Balsa...welcome to haiku and the studio! So glad to see you here and to have your ku's accompany you.

"spring break
home from the front

This one had me puzzled at first. I guess my mind didn't want to go 'there'. Hah!

Again, welcome and I hope to see many more of your excellent haiku.

Peace.

Your first two have a weird rythym to them. Their fast-moving haiku. Number two didn't catch hold of me really. The third one did, and the second time I read i sort of understood it. It has a good sense of space.
You have a very interesting voice.
